The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A man from ordinary London rescues a wounded girl from the underworld and gets pulled into a hidden magical realm called London Below. There he encounters strange characters and dangerous forces as he tries to find his way home.

What happens
Neverwhere is an urban fantasy television six-part drama by Neil Gaiman that first aired in 1996 on BBC2. The series is set in "London Below", a magical realm coexisting with the more familiar London, referred to as "London Above". It was devised by Neil Gaiman and Lenny Henry and directed by Dewi Humphreys. Gaiman adapted the series into a novel, which was released in September 1996. The series and book were partially inspired by Gene Wolfe's novel Free Live Free. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
